00:00Because of that perfect compatibility spore, the Werebeast commander had no choice but to marry me.
00:05But right after the wedding, he couldn't have cared less about me.
00:08I was desperate, so I tried to get him into bed every single day.
00:12I was dead set on it.
00:14If we had enough SX, he'd eventually fall for me.
00:17I just knew it.
00:18Today, I was trying to seduce him again when my phone lit up with an urgent alert from the Werebeast
00:23administration.
00:24We found an error in your compatibility score with General Tarrington.
00:27He's not your perfect match.
00:28I froze, totally shocked.
00:32No wonder he was always so cold to me.
00:36Beneath me, Benjamin had no clue about the alert.
00:39He rubbed his dick against my butt.
00:41You gonna wanna or not, I got stuff to take care of.
00:44I scrambled for my clothes, yanking them on as I backed away.
00:48No, go back to work.
00:50His frown got deeper.
00:52You sure about that?
00:54Yeah, I'm sure.
00:56I stammered out.
00:57He stared at me long and hard, but he didn't say what he was thinking.
01:01He just got dressed in his uniform, not a single word, then headed out the door.
01:05The second the door clicked shut, I called the administration.
01:08What the hell is going on here?
01:10I snapped.
01:11We're so sorry, Ms. Penrith.
01:13When we were updating historical data, we found a glitch in your compatibility score with General Tarrington.
01:18He's not your perfect match.
01:19We've been married for two years, and you're just now figuring this out?
01:23We sincerely apologize.
01:25According to the corrected data, you still have an 80% compatibility.
01:28In theory, your marriage shouldn't be effective.
01:32You said in theory.
01:33What about in real life?
01:35The rep hesitated.
01:36In real life, your actual perfect match is someone else.
01:41Who?
01:42We don't know yet.
01:43We lost some data during the system update, and we're doing everything we can to get it back.
01:51I ran a hand through my hair, pacing back and forth across the huge bedroom.
02:00Have you told Benjamin yet?
02:02No, ma'am.
02:03He blocked all our numbers.
02:09Right.
02:09I'd totally forgotten about that.
02:13When Benjamin first found out the administration had matched him with a human,
02:18he was so ticked off, he blocked them on everything.
02:22Don't tell him yet.
02:23Let me figure something out first.
02:25We really appreciate your cooperation, the rep said,
02:29sounding like a weight had been flippeded off their shoulders.
02:33In this world, Warebeats ran the show.
02:38Thanks to their insane physical strength,
02:40they had a total monopoly on all the political and military power.
02:45Benjamin was the top military commander.
02:49Pissing him off was basically digging your own grave.
02:53Humans, on the other hand, were stuck doing basic, crappy jobs.
02:58After I transmuted here, I'd been slaving away at those dead-end gigs,
03:03all while scrambling to find a way back to my Aminian Gerd, to my original world.
03:08Then, one day, the administration dropped a bombshell.
03:13I was the perfect match for their top general.
03:17I jumped at the chance.
03:21No one his rank had ever married a human before.
03:24He only did it because of that perfect compatibility score.
03:27After the wedding, he buried himself in work and barely ever came home.
03:30I'd wait in the living room until midnight.
03:32The study light stayed on.
03:34Then, his footsteps would walk past the bedroom door and keep going.
03:37I made it my daily mission to hit on him whenever he was around.
03:40I'd sit on his desk while he worked.
03:41I'd leave the bedroom door open.
03:43I'd wear things that should have worked on any man.
03:45Nothing worked.
03:46He hated every single second of it.
03:48His jaw would tighten when I walked in.
03:50His eyes stayed fixed on the paperwork.
03:52Eventually, I resorted to blackmail.
03:54One more step and I'll tell everyone you're impotent.
03:58He stopped.
03:59Jaw tight.
04:01Fists clenched.
04:03Then, he walked into the bedroom.
04:05After that, he let me do whatever I wanted.
04:07But he never once looked me in the eye.
04:09His hands stayed fisted at his sides, like holding himself back.
04:13It didn't matter.
04:14I wasn't after his heart.
04:15Then, the administration called.
04:17For a werebeast who couldn't care less about romance.
04:19A compatibility score meant jacksot.
04:21Only a perfect score could make him feel any real affection.
04:24I thought about it for one night.
04:26The next morning, I stopped texting him.
04:28Stopped asking when he'd be home.
04:30A week passed.
04:30Then, my phone buzzed.
04:32I had the private doctor swing by to check on you.
04:34I'm not sick.
04:35The butler said you've been zoning out a ton lately.
04:38You stopped buying clothes and bags.
04:40You sure you're feeling okay?
04:41I'm totally fine.
04:43All right.
04:44I put the phone down and went back to my book.
04:46His typing bubble appeared.
04:48Flashed.
04:49Disappeared.
04:49Appeared again.
04:51I'm coming home tomorrow.
04:55I typed up a long reply real quick.
04:58Tomorrow?
04:59You don't gotta rush back.
05:01Seriously.
05:02Everything's good here.
05:04Stay focused on work.
05:06This country needs you right now.
05:07Don't worry about home.
05:09Benjamin didn't hit me back after that.
05:11He was probably touched by how understanding I was being.
05:14I hoped that when he finally found out the truth, he'd remember how nice I'd been.
05:18Half an hour later, Benjamin walked right through the front door.
05:21He looked beat.
05:22Like he'd dropped everything at work and bolted straight home.
05:26He didn't even take off his uniform before pressing the back of his hand to my forehead.
05:30Your temp, breathing, and scent are all normal.
05:33You're not sick.
05:35I already told you.
05:36I'm completely fine.
05:38Then why'd you stop shopping?
05:40Your favorite brand drops new stuff every Monday, and you usually load up.
05:44Uh, I just wanted to save you some cash.
05:49You don't gotta do that.
05:50Benjamin stared right at me.
05:52I'll make back whatever you spend.
05:55I didn't marry you so you could pinch pennies.
05:58I couldn't bring myself to tell him the truth.
06:00We were gonna get a divorce soon.
06:03I stayed quiet.
06:05And then Benjamin suddenly picked me up in his arms.
06:09And carried me to the bedroom.
06:13He murmured near my ears, his breath hot against my neck.
06:15You've been dying to sleep with me in my uniform.
06:18We can do it today.
06:19Just this once.
06:20I felt his hands slide down my waist, fingers hooking under the hem of my shirt.
06:25The rough fabric of his uniform brushed my bare skin.
06:28His lips trailed down to my colophon.
06:31His canine teeth scratched lightly, not quite breaking skin just enough to make me shiver.
06:36He pulled me closer, pressing me against the cold metal buttons of his chest.
06:40His hips pinned me against the bed frame.
06:42No, it's fine!
06:44I scrambled out of his grip.
06:45I pressed my back against the wall, putting distance between us.
06:49His eyes had started to narrow into those vertical slits,
06:52the ones that meant his instincts were waking up.
06:54You must be beat from work.
06:55I'd be a total jerk to wear you out the second you walk in the door.
06:59You need to rest.
07:00You hungry?
07:01I can cook for you today.
07:04I hightailed it out of there, booking it to the safety of the kitchen.
07:07Right before I shut the door, I glanced back and saw Benjamin still standing there.
07:11His arms were frozen in the exact same spot as when he was holding me,
07:15and he looked totally confused.
07:17A few minutes later, he wandered into the kitchen.
07:21Something came up last minute.
07:22I gotta head back and handle it.
07:24Okay, go on then.
07:26I'll be right back as soon as I'm done.
07:28No rush.
07:29Just focus on your work.
07:31You barely ever cook for us.
07:33I really want to eat this meal.
07:35I looked at him, and a thought popped into my head.
07:38I can just bring the food to you when it's ready.
07:41It's way too tiring for you to keep running back and forth.
07:43That works.
07:44His quick yes totally caught me off guard.
07:46Maybe it's because I'm human,
07:48but he never liked it when I went to military headquarters before.
07:50I'd only offered to bring the food as an excuse to avoid him.
07:53I never thought he'd actually say yes.
07:55He was acting super weird today.
07:58As soon as he left the house,
08:00I called our private chef to come take over the cooking.
08:02Once the food was ready,
08:03I took my sweet time walking over to headquarters.
08:05The building was huge and scary,
08:07just like Benjamin, the werewolf himself.
08:09The whole place felt totally overwhelming.
08:12I stood at the closest intersection and called him.
08:14I'm waiting at the usual spot.
08:16Have your lieutenant come pick up the food.
08:18Just come inside.
08:19His deep voice rumbered over the phone.
08:22I'll tell the guards to let you through.
08:24I don't think that's a good idea.
08:26This is a top secret military facility.
08:29Civilians aren't allowed in here.
08:30Doesn't matter.
08:31Nobody's going to stop you.
08:34But I've always waited at the intersection before.
08:38Benjamin paused on the other end of the line.
08:40Just come inside.
08:41Maybe I was imagining it.
08:44But his voice sounded a little softer than usual.
08:48I really didn't want to go in though.
08:50We were getting a divorce anyway.
08:52So there was no point in making myself known now.
08:55But Benjamin wasn't the type of guy
08:57who takes no for an answer.
08:59I forced myself to keep walking.
09:01I got a ton of weird looks on the way in.
09:05Because werebeasts have a huge physical advantage.
09:07They run the entire military.
09:09Seeing a regular human wandering around the base
09:11was pretty damn rare.
09:12One werebeast actually stopped me.
09:15Hey, how'd you get in here?
09:17Did the guards just quit their jobs?
09:19Someone nearby quickly pulled him aside
09:21and set him straight.
09:22When the guy realized I was Benjamin's wife,
09:24he checked me out from head to toe.
09:26Her?
09:27The hate in his voice was thick.
09:29You could practically taste it.
09:31To him, Benjamin marrying me was a total embarrassment.
09:34I finally made it to the Supreme Commander's office
09:36only to hear a loud ruckus coming from inside.
09:39Benjamin, we agreed we were getting food today.
09:42How the hell did you forget again?
09:44It was at Sierra Martin.
09:45She was a total knockout of a werebeast.
09:47Her shifted form was a nightingale.
09:49She was also his old mentor's daughter.
09:51I didn't find out until after we got married
09:53that if his 100% perfect match never showed up,
09:55Benjamin would have probably ended up with her.
09:57Socially speaking, they were a perfect fit.
09:59Sierra stepped closer,
10:00her hand landing on Benjamin's chest.
10:02She leaned in,
10:03her fingers gripping the fabric of his uniform,
10:05her voice dropping low.
10:06Oh, you forgot my birthday dinner.
10:08You owe me Benjamin.
10:10Big time.
10:11Benjamin caught her wrist.
10:12He was about to push her away when his nose twitched.
10:14His head snapped up.
10:16His eyes locked onto mine across the room.
10:18I was standing in the doorway,
10:20holding the lunchbox.
10:21You made it!
10:22He took a long stride toward me.
10:24I need to clear this up.
10:25It's not what it looks like.
10:28Sorry, I shouldn't have intervupted.
10:30He didn't owe me any explanation.
10:31If anyone was butting in here, it was me.
10:34Did I hear you guys had lunch plans?
10:35Perfect timing.
10:36The chef, uh, I mean,
10:37I made way too much food anyway.
10:39You two should split it so it doesn't go to waste.
10:41I'll let you get back to it.
10:42Take all the time you need to catch up.
10:43Oh, and Benjamin,
10:45if you're swamped tonight,
10:46don't sweat coming home.
10:47I won't leave a light on for you.
10:49Benjamin's brow furrowed into a slow, tight prown.
10:52Avoiding his gaze entirely,
10:54I turned and hight-tailed it out of there.
10:56Once I was outside,
10:57I shot a text to the Werebeast administration.
10:59Who's Benjamin's actual 100% match?
11:02We still don't know.
11:03The files are being fixed,
11:05but we can confirm he definitely has one.
11:06Came the reply.
11:08Well, I had a pretty good hunch who it was.
11:10Hurry up and fix him.
11:12You guys are painfully slow.
11:14Work around the clock if you have to.
11:15I need this done yesterday.
11:17Around the clock?
11:18Never mind.
11:19As a mere human,
11:20I have no right to demand anything of you.
11:22I was just shoving my phone back into my pocket
11:24when it buzzed again.
11:25By the way, Miss Penrith,
11:26if everything goes as planned,
11:28your part of the files will be restored real soon.
11:29Once they are,
11:31I'll shoot you the info
11:32on your own 100% match right away.
11:35KK.
11:36What's that supposed to mean?
11:38Don't ask.
11:40That evening,
11:41I was perfectly happy being by myself.
11:43But, surprise, surprise,
11:45Benjamin actually came home.
11:47I wasn't kidding about not leaving a light on.
11:49The living room was pitch black.
11:50He didn't even bother hitting the switch.
11:52His tall figure just loomed in the dark,
11:54right in front of me.
11:55I rubbed my eyes and awed.
11:58What are you doing home?
11:59This is my house.
12:01You're going to tell me I can't come home?
12:03Ugh, that's not what I meant.
12:07Tabatha.
12:08Yeah?
12:10There's absolutely nothing going on
12:12between Sierra and me.
12:13We never got together,
12:15not even in the past.
12:17I know people say we were supposed to get married,
12:19but that's total BS.
12:20I only see her as a fellow soldier.
12:22We planned to eat today
12:23because it's her birthday.
12:24She invited me to a dinner party a while back,
12:27and I said yes
12:27because I figured there'd be tons of other people there.
12:29But I totally forgot about it today.
12:31That's why she came looking for me.
12:32Benjamin was talking a mile a minute,
12:34spilting everything at once.
12:35A total 180 from his usual quiet self.
12:37Waved a hand dismissively in the dark.
12:39It really doesn't matter.
12:41You forgot her invite.
12:43Did you at least apologize properly?
12:46I don't know much about female werebeasts,
12:48but girls are pretty much all the same.
12:50Just comfort her a little,
12:52and she'll be good.
12:53Are you like that too?
12:54He asked out of the blue.
12:55In the dark,
12:56Benjaminian's eyes glowed a faint green.
12:58A dead giveaway his werewolf instincts
13:00were locked right onto me.
13:02Me?
13:03You don't need to coddle me.
13:04I'm totally fine.
13:06And I meant that for real.
13:09Without warning,
13:10Benjamin bent down
13:11and crashed his lips against mine.
13:12He was being weirdly forward,
13:14almost aggressive.
13:15He hadn't even taken off
13:16that dark uniform I loved so much,
13:18and its cold metal buttons scraped my skin,
13:20sending a shiver down my spine.
13:22In the quiet of the room,
13:23the sharp click of his belt buckle unfassing echoed.
13:26I forced myself to stay calm
13:27and stopped him before things got out of hand.
13:29Wait.
13:30Put one on first.
13:31Put what on?
13:35A condom.
13:37Benjamin froze.
13:39When'd you get these?
13:42Today.
13:43I didn't dare tell him the truth.
13:45When he could come home at noon
13:46and suddenly wanted to sleep with me,
13:48I'd worried he might actually go through with it.
13:50So I'd rushed out that afternoon
13:51and bought a box.
13:53Why'd you buy these?
13:54I thought you always wanted a baby.
13:56Well, I realized I'm still young.
13:59Let's hold off on kids for a bit.
14:01I used to think I could lock down my spot
14:02by having his kid.
14:04I was willing to do whatever it took
14:05to find clues on how to get back home.
14:07But clearly,
14:08that plan was out the window now.
14:10My main goal was to keep my distance from Benjamin.
14:13So when he finally found out the truth,
14:15I wouldn't be the one taking the brunt of his anger.
14:20I pulled out a condom
14:21and reached over to put it on him,
14:23but Benjamin didn't move an inch.
14:26You've been acting really weird lately.
14:28He said.
14:29Nah, I haven't.
14:31You have.
14:32Benjamin's voice was firm.
14:34You used to be so into this.
14:35But today,
14:37no matter how much I kiss you,
14:38you're giving me nothing back.
14:40You used to call me honey or sweetie all the time.
14:43You'd even interrupt my work
14:45just to say you wanted to check out my chest.
14:47Now?
14:49You only call me by my first name.
14:52What the hell is going on with you?
14:54Since he was already asking,
14:56I figured it was better to just rip the band-aid off
14:58instead of dragging it out.
14:59I mustered up all my courage and said,
15:02Benjamin,
15:02I want a divorce.
15:05Benjamin stared at me,
15:07stunned.
15:07He sat completely still for a long time
15:09before finally asking,
15:10Why?
15:11Maybe we just aren't a good match.
15:13Our backgrounds,
15:14our social status,
15:15our identities,
15:16none of it aligns.
15:17The compatibility scores say we are.
15:20But compatibility scores aren't the whole story.
15:23They're just numbers.
15:25And we're real people.
15:27We can't just settle for a miserable marriage over a statistic.
15:30Settle?
15:32I nodded cautiously.
15:34Given everything Benjamin had put up with in this marriage,
15:36wasn't he just settling too?
15:38So that's what you think?
15:39The glow in his eyes died instantly.
15:41The wolf ears that had perked up earlier from his arousal
15:43now drooped flat against his head.
15:45I need a minute.
15:45Benjamin stood and pulled his clothes back on.
15:48He walked out of the bedroom
15:49and stepped onto the balcony.
15:51Outside,
15:52the moonlight was bright enough
15:53to wash out most of the stars.
15:54He'd forgotten to hide his tail,
15:56and it hung limply behind him.
15:58I had a puppy when I was a kid.
16:00When it was happy,
16:01its tail would stand straight up and wag.
16:03When it was upset,
16:04it would droop exactly like that.
16:06Benjamin was upset.
16:08Maybe I'd sprung the divorce on him too fast,
16:10and he just wasn't ready for it.
16:12As the supreme commander of the military,
16:14maintaining a flawless marriage on paper
16:15was crucial for his public image.
16:17A sudden divorce from a highly compatible wife
16:19meant he'd be facing immediate backlash from all sides.
16:23When Benjamin finally calmed down,
16:25he came back inside.
16:28Are you absolutely sure you want a divorce?
16:30Yes, but there's no rush.
16:32I can work around whatever schedule works best for you.
16:35We will need to wait.
16:36He slipped right back
16:37into his usual rational, serious self.
16:40My father's birthday is in a few days.
16:42I need you to come to the family dinner with me
16:44so he doesn't worry.
16:46We can hash out the divorce details after.
16:49That's not a problem.
16:50I can definitely do that.
16:51He didn't look angry at all.
16:53That was great.
16:54A massive wave of relief washed over me.
16:56Just as I was congratulating myself
16:58for handling the situation so smoothly,
17:01Benjamin spoke up,
17:02his voice barely above a whisper.
17:04So was everything you told me before just a lie?
17:08What?
17:09I hadn't quite caught it.
17:11Never mind.
17:12Go to sleep.
17:13Good night.
17:13Benjamin turned away
17:14and walked out of the bedroom.
17:17Shortly after,
17:18the Werebeast administration
17:19sent over the profile for my new match.
17:21Like me, he was human.
17:23His name was Emmanuel Lawton.
17:25He was a brilliant young scientist,
17:27built almost as big and tall as Benjamin.
17:30In a world run by Werebeasts,
17:32his sheer intelligence
17:33had bought him serious wealth
17:34and social standing.
17:36There was a phone number
17:37at the bottom of his file.
17:38That meant he already knew who I was.
17:41A match only handed out their contact FOS
17:43if they actually wanted to connect.
17:45I didn't reach out to Emmanuel, though.
17:47I was still Benjamin's wife
17:48and I didn't want to stir up
17:50any unnecessary complications.
17:53Besides, I'd be leaving this world
17:54eventually anyway.
17:56There was no point
17:57in starting another doomed relationship.
17:59That weekend,
18:00Benjamin picked me up
18:01for the family banquet,
18:02just like he promised.
18:03I need a favor today.
18:05We need to pretend
18:05we're happily married.
18:06He said on the drive over.
18:08Don't worry.
18:09I told him.
18:10I'll act like I'm
18:11completely devoted to you.
18:13One more thing.
18:14He added,
18:16My older brother
18:16is coming home today.
18:19You have a brother?
18:21You never mentioned him.
18:22Half-brother.
18:23He's my mom's kid
18:24from her first marriage
18:25before she met my dad.
18:28He's human.
18:29I stared at him.
18:33Human?
18:36Yeah.
18:37My mom is human.
18:38Strictly speaking,
18:39I'm a half-Warebeast.
18:40The Werebeast world
18:41was obsessed with bloodlines.
18:43To them,
18:43being a half-Warebeast
18:44was even worse
18:45than being human.
18:46I'd heard rumors
18:47about Benjamin's heritage before,
18:49but his blunted mission
18:50still threw me.
18:51I couldn't imagine
18:52the kind of pressure
18:52and pain a half-Warebeast
18:54had to push through
18:54to reach his level of power.
18:56Yet he seemed
18:57totally unfazed by it.
18:58We pulled up
18:59to the Tarrington's mansion.
19:01Benjamin's father
19:01used to be a massive deal
19:02in the Werebeast world,
19:03and his birthday banquet
19:05was crawling with the elite.
19:06I looped my arm
19:07through Benjamin's,
19:08ignoring the stares
19:09from the other guests.
19:12A guy who looked
19:13like an old friend
19:14walked up to us.
19:15Benjamin,
19:16is this your 100% match?
19:18What does a perfect match
19:19actually feel like?
19:20Come on, tell us.
19:21Yeah.
19:22A few other friends
19:23chimed in,
19:24crowding around.
19:25A 100% match
19:26is insanely rare.
19:28My wife and I
19:28are at 70%,
19:29and that's already
19:30considered huge.
19:31No kidding.
19:32When I scored
19:32a 68% match,
19:34my mom was over the moon.
19:35Benjamin smiled.
19:36Then I'd better
19:37keep it to myself.
19:38Wouldn't want you guys
19:38getting jealous.
19:40Oh, come on.
19:41We're not like that.
19:43Still,
19:44I seriously envy you two.
19:46I've heard perfect matches
19:48get these distinct
19:49physical reactions
19:50when they first meet.
19:52Right.
19:53They say you feel
19:54this sudden jolt
19:55in your chest
19:56and your vision sharpens.
19:58Like you instantly
19:59recognize each other
20:00without even needing
20:01to see the test results.
20:03Was that true?
20:04That was the first time
20:05I was hearing about it.
20:07looking back
20:08at when I first met
20:09Benjamin,
20:09neither of us
20:10went through
20:10those physical changes.
20:12If Benjamin
20:12hadn't felt them either,
20:14did that mean
20:15he already knew
20:15our data was wrong?
20:17I shot a quick glance
20:18up at him
20:18only to find
20:19his expression
20:19completely calm.
20:21He didn't look
20:22the least bit surprised.
20:25Actually,
20:26there's more to it
20:26than that.
20:27He said steadily.
20:29There's also
20:30an intense urge
20:31to possess
20:32the other person
20:34or to be possessed
20:35by them.
20:36The conversation
20:37slammed to a halt.
20:39Benjamin looked down,
20:40locking eyes with me.
20:42His friends
20:42started teasing him,
20:44shocked that he could
20:44say something so intense.
20:46They had no idea
20:47I was breaking out
20:48in a cold sweat
20:48from pure panic.
20:49Why was he looking
20:50at me like that?
20:51Had he realized
20:52the data was fake?
20:53What was going
20:54through his head
20:54right now?
20:55Was he planning
20:55to violently destroy
20:57the incompetent
20:57werebeast administration?
20:59I just hoped
21:00that if he did,
21:00he'd spare me.
21:03Before my anxiety
21:04could spiral
21:04any further,
21:06the banquet
21:07officially began.
21:11Benjamin's father,
21:12Matthias Tarrington,
21:13took the stage.
21:15I gathered everyone
21:16here today
21:16for a very important reason.
21:18Matthias said,
21:19his tone dead serious.
21:21My late wife
21:22died far too young.
21:24She had a son
21:25before we married,
21:27and when she passed,
21:28the boy was left orphaned.
21:30I brought him
21:30into our home
21:31to raise alongside
21:32Benjamin.
21:34Over the years,
21:36we've grown as close
21:37as father and son.
21:40Today,
21:40I'm officially
21:41welcoming him
21:42as a full member
21:43of the Terristan family.
21:45The room went
21:46completely silent.
21:47Matthias' bold choices
21:49in his youth
21:49were still legendary
21:50in the werebeast community.
21:52Born into a wealthy,
21:53powerful alpha wolf
21:55bloodline,
21:55he had chosen
21:56to marry a human widow
21:57who already had a kid.
21:59Ignoring everyone's pushback,
22:01Matthias had brought her
22:02into his home.
22:03Now,
22:04he was formally adopting
22:05the child she'd had
22:07with her previous husband.
22:08People genuinely wondered
22:09if he'd lost his mind.
22:11The question was written
22:12on every face
22:13in the crowd.
22:15only Benjamin looked unfazed,
22:17like he'd known
22:18about the decision
22:19all along.
22:20Does this bother you?
22:22I leaned in and whispered,
22:23Why would it?
22:24He's human,
22:26and he's about to be
22:27your older brother.
22:28My mom was human,
22:29and so are you.
22:31His blunt,
22:32honest answer
22:33caught me off guard.
22:34Just like he had years ago,
22:36Matthias completely ignored
22:38the crowd's silent judgment.
22:40Come on up,
22:40Emanuel.
22:41He called out,
22:42Introduce yourself
22:43to everyone.
22:45Hearing that name
22:45hit me so hard,
22:46my mind just went blank
22:47for a second.
22:48The whole energy
22:49of the room
22:50suddenly shifted.
22:53I slowly looked up
22:55and saw him.
22:57At Emanuel Lawton.
22:59My actual,
23:01100% biological match.
23:05Emanuel looked right at me
23:06from across the crowded room.
23:08When our eyes met,
23:10a sharp,
23:11sudden tension
23:11gripped my chest.
23:12I felt an overwhelming
23:14biological urge
23:15to mate with him
23:15right then and there.
23:17But the feeling
23:18only lasted a second.
23:20Because I was human.
23:21I wasn't some werebeast
23:23driven entirely
23:24by reproductive instinct.
23:26The upside of being human
23:27was having the self-control
23:28to override
23:29those intense physical urges.
23:31Emanuel noticed my arm
23:32linked through Benjamin's,
23:33but his expression
23:34didn't so much as flicker.
23:35Just like me,
23:36he knew exactly
23:37how to mask his reactions.
23:38Matthias led Emanuel
23:39around the room,
23:40introducing him
23:41to the guests,
23:42and before long,
23:43they made their way
23:43over to us.
23:44Emanuel greeted Benjamin first.
23:46It's been three years.
23:48You look taller.
23:50Are you 190 centimeters now?
23:53Almost.
23:55189 centimeters.
23:56Benjamin replied,
23:58You spent the last three years
24:00totally buried
24:01in your academic research
24:02without coming home once.
24:07I'm here now, aren't I?
24:09Emanuel shifted his gaze
24:11right to me.
24:13And who is this?
24:16This is Tabitha,
24:17my wife.
24:18Benjamin said,
24:19I invited you to the wedding,
24:22but you were too busy
24:24to make it.
24:24That's on me.
24:27I'll have a few extra drinks tonight
24:29to make up for it.
24:32All right.
24:33Since you offered,
24:34I'll make sure we drink plenty.
24:36Benjamin agreed.
24:39Tabitha won't mind,
24:40will she?
24:41Emanuel watched me closely,
24:43the underlying implication
24:44heavy in his voice.
24:45I waved a hand,
24:46quickly brushing it off.
24:48Go ahead.
24:49You don't need to worry about me.
24:52As the night wore on
24:53and the drinks kept flowing,
24:55the alcohol seemed to amplify
24:56his natural scent,
24:57making me intensely,
24:58physically aware of him.
24:59I excused myself to the restroom
25:01so I could slip outside
25:02for some fresh air.
25:03Breathing in the cool night breathe
25:04finally helped clear my head.
25:06I sat quietly for a minute
25:07until I heard a voice behind me.
25:09Tabitha,
25:10can I call you that?
25:11It was Emanuel.
25:12He kept a polite distance
25:13standing about three meters away.
25:15I always wondered
25:15why my perfect match
25:16never reached out.
25:18Seeing you today,
25:19I finally get it.
25:20I offered an awkward smile.
25:21The Werebeast administration
25:23messed up my data.
25:24I honestly thought
25:24Benjamin was my 100% match.
25:26I get it.
25:27It wouldn't be the first time
25:28they've screwed up.
25:30Benjamin still doesn't know.
25:32Please don't tell him yet.
25:34He doesn't know?
25:36Emanuel raised his eyebrows
25:37in surprise.
25:38I had to admit,
25:40if I were still in my original world,
25:41Emanuel would be my exact type.
25:43Tall, lean, and handsome,
25:45with a sharp mind.
25:46He checked every single one
25:47of my boxes.
25:48The Werebeast administration
25:49is still struggling
25:50to figure out
25:51how to notify him.
25:52They're incredibly inefficient.
25:53You can totally tell
25:54they've never worked
25:55in a fast-paced
25:56corporate environment.
25:57I ran a tech startup back home.
25:59This kind of slack
26:00would have sunk us in a month.
26:03Seriously,
26:04if I were their boss,
26:05I'd put them on
26:05permanent crunch mode.
26:06They're so bad,
26:07they'd still miss every deadline,
26:08even pulling all nights.
26:10Wait a second.
26:11I shot to my feet.
26:13At the exact same moment,
26:15Emanuel realized
26:15what we were saying
26:16and looked at me,
26:17his eyes wide.
26:18You're from another world, too?
26:20We blurted out in Eunice,
26:21instantly confirming
26:22that we were both trans-huggers.
26:24What is happening?
26:25Is this real?
26:26Am I dreaming?
26:27When did you get here?
26:29Five years ago.
26:30You?
26:32A little before that.
26:34I was born into this world.
26:36Dude, that's not a little before.
26:37That's way before.
26:39Emanuel's shoulders dropped
26:40as he visibly
26:41let his guard down.
26:42You should have told me
26:43we were from the same place.
26:45How are you holding up here?
26:47Ugh, I hate this
26:48were-beast world.
26:49I just want to go home.
26:51You'll be able to soon.
26:53Wait, what?
26:55The whole reason
26:56I became a scientist
26:57was to find a way back home.
26:58I've made a ton of progress.
27:00If nothing goes wrong,
27:01we can go back really soon.
27:03Holy crap!
27:04Man, you're incredibly capable!
27:07Seriously, that's amazing!
27:09The science part
27:10is easy enough for me.
27:12Emanuel flashed
27:13a popular internet hand gesture
27:15from back home
27:16and a massive wave
27:17of familiarity
27:18washed over me.
27:19After all,
27:20before I ended up here,
27:22I was the youngest person
27:23to ever get published
27:24in a top-tealer academic journal.
27:26Wait!
27:27That was you?
27:29I think I read
27:30the articles about you!
27:32I remembered reading
27:33about a young,
27:34high-achieving prodigy
27:35whenever he was in the news.
27:38People mostly just focused
27:40on his ridiculously good looks.
27:42I'd even forwarded
27:44the article to my best friend,
27:46joking that he was
27:47exactly my type.
27:49Now,
27:50that same wildly successful guy
27:52from the news
27:53was sitting right in front of me,
27:56hashing out our plan to go home.
27:58The more we talked,
28:00the more hyped we got.
28:04Neither of us even noticed
28:06someone walking up behind us.
28:08Tabby,
28:10so this is where you are.
28:11Benjamin stepped out
28:13from the shadows of the room.
28:14His earlier gentleness
28:16was completely gone,
28:18replaced by a freezing glare
28:20locked on Emanuel.
28:21He stared him down
28:23with intense hostility,
28:25sizing him up like a threat.
28:27Emanuel didn't flinch.
28:29Tabitha and I are both human.
28:31We just got talking
28:32and lost track of time.
28:33Dad is still waiting
28:34for you out front.
28:35You should go find him.
28:36Benjamin said,
28:37Right.
28:38Emanuel smiled
28:39and walked past me,
28:40his shoulder brushing mine.
28:41By the way,
28:42Tabitha,
28:43you're welcome to drop
28:44by my lab anytime.
28:45The second he was gone,
28:47Benjamin threw an arm
28:47around my shoulder,
28:48his hand clamped down
28:50on the exact spot
28:50Emanuel had just brushed,
28:52asserting his physical presence
28:53to overwrite
28:54the other guy's touch.
28:55What were you two
28:55talking about just now?
28:57You seem pretty happy.
29:00We were just talking
29:01about his work.
29:02This was the first time
29:03I'd ever felt
29:04terrifying were-beast aura
29:05radiating off Benjamin.
29:07Are you going to visit his lab?
29:09We'll see.
29:11I clenched my jaw,
29:13doing my best to play it cool.
29:14This was the first time
29:15I'd ever felt
29:16that terrifying were-beast aura
29:18radiating off Benjamin.
29:19He was obviously still
29:20in his human form,
29:21but his intense stare
29:23made me feel
29:23completely exposed
29:25and physically threatened.
29:26Like he wanted to claim
29:27absolute ownership over me.
29:29The possessiveness
29:30was suffocating.
29:31I knew it wasn't
29:32out of love though.
29:33It was just the
29:34territorial instinct
29:35of a male beast.
29:37I had to go to
29:38Emanuel's lab.
29:39I wanted to see the machine
29:40that could take us back home.
29:42Today,
29:42I slipped out of the house
29:43the second Benjamin
29:44left for work.
29:46Emanuel showed me
29:47his research data,
29:48and it gave me
29:49so much hope.
29:51The hours completely
29:52flew by in his lab.
29:53It wasn't until
29:55later that evening
29:56when I checked
29:56my phone
29:57that I realized
29:57I had dozens
29:58of missed calls
29:59and texts
30:00from Benjamin.
30:01Is Benjamin
30:02looking for you?
30:03Yeah.
30:03Didn't you say
30:04he wasn't really
30:04all that affectionate
30:05with you?
30:05Who knows
30:06what his deal is lately?
30:07I sighed.
30:08Maybe his possessive
30:09male instincts
30:09are just acting up.
30:10Emanuel hit the lab lights,
30:12and we headed out together.
30:14Benjamin was waiting
30:15for us right at
30:16the bottom of the stairs.
30:17He must have been
30:18standing there a while.
30:19His eyes were
30:20noticeably red.
30:21The guards told me
30:22you were here.
30:23He said,
30:25I didn't believe them,
30:27but here you are.
30:29Sorry, I said.
30:31Ray, I haven't been
30:31checking my phone.
30:33Benjamin's gaze
30:33shifted to Emanuel.
30:35He looked like
30:36he wanted to say
30:37something,
30:38but bit his tongue.
30:40Instead,
30:41he held his hand
30:42out to me.
30:43Are you done?
30:46Can we go home now?
30:49I walked over to him
30:50without a word.
30:51My mind still stuck
30:52on the experiment
30:53I just watched.
30:55Emanuel chimed in.
30:56Too bad I can't
30:57take you home today,
30:58Tabitha.
31:00Come back tomorrow,
31:02and I'll show you
31:03something else interesting.
31:04Benjamin tensed
31:05instantly,
31:06yanking me
31:07tight against his chest.
31:09She isn't coming
31:10back tomorrow.
31:11I wouldn't be so sure
31:13about that.
31:15meeting Benjamin's
31:16death glare,
31:17Emanuel just smirked.
31:21You know, Benjamin,
31:22you sent me an invitation
31:24to your house
31:26a while back.
31:28Why don't I come
31:29over today?
31:31Now isn't a good time.
31:34That's a shame.
31:36I really wanted to see
31:37where Tabitha
31:38and you live.
31:41Don't you have
31:42your own house?
31:43Benjamin snapped.
31:45Why do you need
31:45to see ours?
31:47Actually, I don't.
31:48Did you forget?
31:51My parents are dead.
31:52Emanuel shot me a wink,
31:54faking a hurt expression.
31:55I didn't expect him
31:56to bring up
31:56such a painful subject.
31:58Tabby,
31:59does he always
32:00treat you this poorly?
32:02Don't call her Tabby.
32:05The air between them
32:06grew incredibly tense.
32:08Benjamin's pupils
32:09narrowed into vertical slits
32:11and his fangs
32:13extended.
32:14Relax,
32:15I was just joking.
32:16Emanuel said,
32:19You're so protective
32:21of your wife,
32:22Benjamin.
32:25What would you do
32:26if someone
32:27took her away
32:28from you?
32:29That will never happen.
32:33I love Tabby
32:34very much.
32:36And she
32:37loves me.
32:39Benjamin hesitated.
32:40He couldn't quite
32:41bring himself to say
32:42she loved him
32:42very much.
32:43Emanuel smiled.
32:44I envy you guys.
32:46But, you know,
32:48the Werebeast administration
32:49reached out recently.
32:51Turns out,
32:52I've got a perfect match, too.
32:54He stared dead at me
32:56the whole time he spoke.
32:57It was a blatant provocation.
33:00Benjamin shifted
33:01his massive frame
33:02to physically block
33:03Emanuel's line of sight
33:04to me.
33:05I have no problem
33:07killing you right here,
33:08Emanuel.
33:10Things were spiraling fast.
33:13Snapping back
33:14to reality,
33:15I tugged on
33:16Benjamin's sleeve.
33:18Let's go home.
33:20I finally managed
33:22to drag him out of there.
33:23Once we were sealed
33:24inside the car,
33:26Benjamin broke
33:27the silence.
33:29Tabby,
33:30you shouldn't have been
33:31meeting him
33:32behind my back.
33:33Why not?
33:34You're my wife,
33:34and you just spent
33:35the whole day alone
33:36in a locked room
33:37with another male?
33:38His heavy breathing
33:39filled the quiet car.
33:41I could practically feel
33:42the heat of his anger.
33:43He was highly distressed,
33:44clearly fighting off
33:45whatever he was picturing
33:46had happened in the lab.
33:48But we're getting
33:49a divorce anyway,
33:50aren't we?
33:50I said,
33:50pointing out the obvious.
33:52We agreed to hash it out
33:53after the family dinner.
33:56Is that really
33:57what you want?
33:58A divorce?
33:59He demanded.
34:01Because of him?
34:02Not because of him.
34:03I have my own reasons.
34:05At first,
34:06I'd wanted a divorce
34:06because our matching
34:07scores were wrong.
34:08But now,
34:09I just wanted to go back
34:10to my own place.
34:11Since he didn't really
34:12care about me,
34:12I figured I'd give him
34:13his freedom back
34:14before I left.
34:15Benjamin didn't say
34:16another word.
34:16I assumed he was
34:17already mentally drafting
34:18how we were going
34:19to announce the split.
34:20But the second we walked
34:21through our front door,
34:22he grabbed me
34:23and hauled me
34:24straight into the bathroom.
34:25What are you doing?
34:26I asked.
34:27You're taking a shower.
34:29You smell like another male
34:30and you need to scrub it off.
34:32We're throwing these clothes
34:34in the trash.
34:34I can wash myself.
34:36No.
34:38I don't trust you
34:39to do it right.
34:43Benjamin stubbornly scrubbed
34:45every part of my body,
34:46completely ignoring
34:47how the shower
34:48was soaking straight
34:49through his own shirt.
34:50His behavior
34:51was erratic.
34:52and his pupils
34:53had narrowed
34:54right back
34:54into those vertical slits.
34:56It seemed his jealousy
34:57had triggered
34:58his mating cycle
34:59prematurely.
35:00When we finally
35:01got out of the shower,
35:02he grabbed me
35:03a change of clothes.
35:04I recognized
35:05the outfit instantly.
35:06It was the exact
35:07one I'd planned
35:08to wear to seduce him.
35:09The day we found out
35:10about the error
35:11in our compatibility test,
35:13Benjamin didn't give me
35:14a chance to argue.
35:15He just dressed me
35:16in it himself.
35:17I hadn't realized
35:18how terrifyingly intense
35:20a wear-beast could be
35:21when their heat
35:22hit early.
35:23The outfit barely
35:24had any fabric
35:25to begin with,
35:26and after he tore it
35:27off me during sex,
35:29it was nothing but scraps.
35:31Thinking we were
35:32finally done,
35:33I nudged him away.
35:36Go get changed.
35:37You're dripping wet
35:38and it's uncomfortable.
35:42Benjamin left to change,
35:44but came back
35:45in his fully buttoned
35:46military uniform,
35:47right down to the leather
35:49thigh straps for his holster.
35:51Completely dressed
35:52and totally expressionless,
35:53he pulled me back into bed
35:55and kept going
35:56until I was completely exhausted.
35:59You're hiding something from me.
36:01He murmured.
36:02He was crying.
36:03Tears dripped onto my skin,
36:05and for the first time,
36:06I realized Evolf's tears
36:08could be searingly hot.
36:10You looked so happy
36:11talking to him.
36:16Are you going to be with him
36:17after we divorce?
36:20And even if it isn't him,
36:22there'll be other guys,
36:23won't there?
36:24Let's just stay married.
36:29Please.
36:31The night only ended
36:32when I finally passed out
36:34from pure exhaustion.
36:36When I woke up
36:37the next morning,
36:38Benjamin was still there.
36:40He seemed a lot calmer
36:42than the night before.
36:43He dropped to one knee,
36:45helping me pull on my socks
36:47while I rubbed
36:47my aching lower back.
36:49The silence between us
36:51was awkward,
36:52especially since
36:53I genuinely enjoyed
36:54the sex too.
36:55I was just about
36:57to say something.
36:58When his phone rang,
37:00it was his adjutant.
37:02General Tarrington,
37:03we have a situation.
37:04Keep it under control.
37:05I'm on my way back.
37:07No, sir.
37:08It's not the military.
37:09It's your
37:11compelitability results.
37:15Benjamin left
37:16for the Werebeast administration.
37:18Hours passed.
37:19I waited at home,
37:20my mind racing,
37:20when he finally walked
37:21back through the door.
37:22He was holding to pages.
37:24His grip was white-knuckled
37:26on the paper.
37:26He sat down across from me
37:28and told me everything.
37:30The entire administration
37:31building had been cleared out.
37:33The staff stood in a neat row,
37:36dead silent and terrified.
37:38Twenty minutes before he arrived,
37:39they'd fully restored his data.
37:42Since they couldn't reach him directly,
37:44some new intern had forwarded
37:45the report straight to his adjutant.
37:47The massive screw-up
37:48was now completely exposed.
37:50I was still a 100% match for him,
37:53but he was only an 80% match for me.
37:55At the exact same time,
37:57he saw my file,
37:58which clearly listed
37:59my perfect match.
38:00Emmanuel Lawton,
38:01Adriel Gorney,
38:02the elderly bureau director,
38:04sat trembling in his wheelchair.
38:06General Tarrington,
38:07I take full responsibility
38:09for this mistake.
38:11I'll pull my oxygen tube
38:13right now to apologize.
38:15Benjamin just stared at him blankly.
38:17Leave your oxygen alone.
38:19I only have one question.
38:22Ask away, sir.
38:23Where exactly am I losing that 20%?
38:29Everyone expected him to start yelling.
38:31No one saw a question like that coming.
38:34Adriel hesitated,
38:35looking incredibly uncomfortable.
38:37Do I really have to say it?
38:39It involves highly personal details.
38:42Tell me.
38:44According to our comprehensive analysis,
38:50your physical conditioning
38:52is simply too extreme
38:53for Mrs. Penrith.
38:55Benjamin frowned.
38:56What does that mean?
38:58It means that
38:59if you completely let go during sex,
39:02she physically cannot handle
39:04your size or your stamina.
39:06You've been married for two years.
39:09Haven't you noticed?
39:10Benjamin fell silent.
39:12Last night,
39:13completely consumed by jealousy,
39:16he'd lost his restraint in bed
39:17for the very first time.
39:19The night had ended
39:20with my eyes slipping shut.
39:22He assumed I'd just passed out
39:23from exhaustion,
39:24but the truth was
39:25I'd completely blacked out.
39:27What else?
39:29He'd asked.
39:30That pretty much covers it.
39:32It falls short
39:33on just this one metric,
39:35which is why the system
39:37put the match at 80%.
39:38Benjamin had tossed
39:39Emmanuel's file back onto the desk.
39:41So how does he score
39:42a perfect 100%
39:43aside from that one missing detail?
39:45Adriel stared at the paperwork
39:46for a long time,
39:48furrowing his brow.
39:49I've never seen a result like this.
39:51It looks like he and Miss Penrith
39:53share a remarkably similar
39:55genetic sequence.
39:56They come from the exact same
39:58biological group,
39:59which is why they trigger
40:00a complete match.
40:02Are they related?
40:03No, no, you're misreading the data.
40:05They just share
40:05the same geographic origin.
40:07Benjamin told me he'd turn
40:09to look at me then.
40:10My mind had raced,
40:11trying to come up with a lie,
40:13just in case he asked
40:14if Emmanuel and I
40:15shared a homeland.
40:16But he didn't ask.
40:18He just lowered his gaze,
40:20looking like he had already
40:22figured out the truth
40:23I was hiding.
40:25When we got home,
40:27Benjamin sat out on the balcony
40:28in gloomy silence.
40:30Is this why you brought up
40:31getting a divorce?
40:32He asked.
40:33Because you found a human
40:34with a higher compatibility score?
40:35I walked over,
40:37trying to cut the tension
40:38with a casual tone.
40:4080% is still incredibly high.
40:42Please, don't be upset, okay?
40:44I'm sorry.
40:45What are you apologizing for now?
40:47I hurt you last night, didn't I?
40:50Were you in pain?
40:52You were a little rough,
40:53but I was fine.
40:55I actually find it attractive
40:56when you get aggressive.
40:59I'll be much more careful next time.
41:03If you still want a future with me.
41:06He paused.
41:07Before I could say anything,
41:09he kept going.
41:10I couldn't resist leaning in
41:12If you don't want to stay,
41:13I get it.
41:15You're free to leave.
41:18It'll be incredibly hard for me,
41:20but I'll rein in my natural instincts.
41:22I'm swaying back and forth.
41:24He pressed his face into my chest,
41:26his voice muffled.
41:27Those incompetent idiots
41:29at the Warbeast administration
41:30don't know the first thing
41:32about genetics.
41:33Our compatibility
41:34is exactly 100%.
41:37I know it for a fact.
41:39The very first time I saw you,
41:41my heart rate spiked
41:43and my body temperature shot up.
41:45Long before any test data
41:47even existed,
41:48my body and mind
41:49recognized you.
41:52Many words hovered
41:54on the tip of my tongue,
41:55but I could not bring myself
41:57to say them.
41:58I asked,
41:59Since you have these reactions to me,
42:01why do you always act so indifferent?
42:05Sorry, Tabby.
42:06Actually,
42:07there is a reason for all this.
42:10Let me take you somewhere.
42:12Maybe then you'll understand.
42:16Benjamin brought me to a cemetery.
42:18His mother was buried here.
42:20The lady in the photograph
42:22wore a gentle smile
42:23and Benjamin's eyes
42:24resembled hers.
42:26After my mother's
42:27first husband passed away,
42:29she wandered the streets
42:30with my older brother
42:31until she met my father.
42:33Benjamin spoke in a low,
42:34steady voice.
42:35At that time,
42:36my father had already
42:37been promoted
42:38to a senior position
42:39in the Warbeast treasury department.
42:42He was a hopeless romantic
42:44and despite everyone's objections,
42:47he gave my mother
42:48the most lavish affection.
42:50I have never seen
42:51a couple so deeply in love.
42:54Even when the test results
42:55later showed
42:56they were only 80% compatible.
42:58To me,
43:00it was 100%.
43:02But my mother was a human,
43:04a fragile human.
43:05Six years after they married,
43:07my father was promoted
43:08to the top position,
43:09but his political enemies
43:10bore a grudge.
43:12Unable to kill my father,
43:13they killed his weakness,
43:15which was my mother.
43:16I opened my mouth,
43:18but not a single word came out.
43:20It was unimaginable.
43:22For someone as devoted
43:23as Benjamin's father,
43:25the despair and grief
43:26after losing his beloved
43:27must have been overwhelming.
43:29Benjamin bent down
43:30and placed the flowers
43:31he had brought
43:32in front of the tombstone.
43:33There were many,
43:34many flowers there,
43:35some fresh and vibrant,
43:37others already withered.
43:39It was clear that people
43:40often came to visit this lady.
43:43My father was ready
43:44to die for love
43:45at that time.
43:48But when he turned around
43:49and saw Emmanuel and me
43:50looking at him
43:51with pleating eyes,
43:52he couldn't bear it
43:54and chose to live on.
43:56Benjamin turned
43:56to gaze at me.
43:58After my compatibility
43:59results came out,
44:00I secretly vowed
44:02that I would never let
44:03my mother's tragedy
44:04happen to you.
44:05I pondered.
44:07So?
44:09You don't let me
44:10go to headquarters
44:11and you rarely
44:13travel with me?
44:14Yes.
44:16My work is even more
44:17dangerous than my father's.
44:20Only by doing this
44:21can I protect you.
44:24Then why did you block
44:26the Werebeast administration?
44:27I didn't block them,
44:28just deleted them.
44:30We've all found our matches,
44:31so there's no need
44:31to keep them.
44:33I never intended
44:35to remarry.
44:36But after you came home,
44:38you still seemed
44:39a bit distant with me.
44:40You forgot Werebeats
44:41have extremely sensitive
44:42senses of smell.
44:44Benjamin slowly
44:45rolled up his sleeve.
44:47If I completely
44:48let myself go
44:49and fully merge with you,
44:50then your scent
44:51would cover me
44:52inside and out.
44:56That would be like
44:57handing your information
44:58straight to my enemies.
45:00This is the only way
45:01I can restrain myself.
45:04His arm was covered
45:06with many wounds,
45:07shocking to behold.
45:09Without my knowledge,
45:11Benjamin had forced himself
45:12to stay away from me
45:14by self-harming.
45:15Seeing those wounds
45:17made my heart ache.
45:18Benjamin apologized to me.
45:20I'm sorry.
45:21Why are you apologizing?
45:24Because my actions
45:25made you misunderstand.
45:27I'm truly sorry.
45:30Don't be.
45:32Actually,
45:33I was at fault
45:34that 80%
45:35was really hard
45:35to talk about.
45:36I thought about
45:37raising a dog.
45:38Actually,
45:39the puppy only
45:40had eyes for me,
45:41but I had other dogs
45:42outside.
45:43I couldn't help
45:44but hug him tightly.
45:46Benjamin lowered
45:47his head
45:47and kissed me.
45:48In that moment,
45:50I didn't want
45:50to think about anything.
45:51No compatibility scores.
45:54No choices
45:55between two.
45:56I only knew
45:58that we were
45:58husband and wife.
45:59He was both
46:00my morality
46:01and my instinct.
46:05Emmanuel's speed
46:06was even faster
46:07than I had expected.
46:09A week later,
46:10he told me
46:11I could go home.
46:12The news came
46:13so suddenly
46:13that I felt
46:14a bit lost.
46:15Looking at the wedding
46:16photo on the bedside table,
46:17I was surprised
46:18to feel a trace
46:19of reluctance.
46:20But when I thought
46:21of my parents
46:22and friends,
46:23I steeled myself
46:24and replied to Emmanuel.
46:27I'll pack up
46:28and meet you
46:29at the lab.
46:30In fact,
46:31there was not much
46:31for me to pack.
46:33But I needed
46:34to leave a letter
46:34for Benjamin,
46:36explaining everything
46:37clearly.
46:38It took me
46:39half an hour
46:40to write the letter.
46:41During that time,
46:42Emmanuel did not
46:43reply to my messages,
46:45but I did not
46:45pay much attention.
46:47Once the letter
46:48was finished,
46:48I put on the outfit
46:49I had worn
46:50when I first arrived
46:51and left the house
46:52feeling light.
46:56But halfway there,
46:57I received another
46:58phone call.
46:59It was Benjamin's
47:00adjutant.
47:01Madam,
47:01you can answer
47:01the phone.
47:02Where are you now?
47:03Me?
47:03I'm at the central mall.
47:04What's wrong?
47:05You're all right?
47:06What could possibly
47:07be wrong with me?
47:07Oh no,
47:08if you're fine,
47:09then General Tarleton
47:10is in danger.
47:11What happened?
47:11Just now,
47:12General Tarleton
47:13received a video
47:14and thought you
47:14had been kidnapped.
47:15He went to
47:16the agreed location.
47:17If you're not
47:18in trouble,
47:19then someone
47:19must have
47:19deliberately set him up.
47:21Damn,
47:22why didn't he
47:22call me first
47:23to confirm?
47:24I don't know.
47:24The communication
47:25at home
47:26was blocked
47:26just now.
47:27Calls couldn't
47:28get through
47:28and texts
47:29wouldn't send.
47:29There was no time
47:30to go home
47:31and check,
47:31so General Tarleton
47:32had to go
47:32rescue you first.
47:34I called you
47:34countless times
47:35and only this one
47:36finally connected.
47:37I glanced at my phone.
47:38Sure enough,
47:39Emmanuel's replies
47:40were now coming in
47:41like snowflakes.
47:42Do you remember
47:43the lab address code?
47:44Here,
47:45I'm almost there.
47:46I'll come down
47:46to meet you.
47:47Why did you
47:47stop replying?
47:48The call won't
47:49go through.
47:50What's going on?
47:51You didn't run
47:51into any danger,
47:52did you?
47:52I'll ask Benjamin.
47:54The adjutant
47:54hurried to hang up,
47:55needing to send
47:56a team to help
47:57Benjamin.
47:57I had never realized
47:58that the real choice
47:59was right here.
48:00One step forward
48:01would be the road
48:02home.
48:02But behind me
48:03was Benjamin,
48:04whose safety
48:05was uncertain.
48:06It was just like
48:06when I first
48:07accepted this match.
48:08It took me
48:08only a second
48:09to make my decision.
48:10Give me
48:11Benjamin's address.
48:14When I rushed
48:15to the abandoned factory,
48:17memories of the little dog
48:18I had raised
48:19as a child
48:20resurfaced in my mind.
48:21People always favored
48:23their first dog,
48:24even though I knew
48:25that other breeds
48:25might be prettier
48:26and more pleasing to me.
48:27But I simply
48:28could not forget it,
48:30because it had given me
48:31my first sense
48:32of companionship
48:33and warmth.
48:33Benjamin was the same.
48:35He was the first person
48:36who had looked at me
48:37with those wet,
48:38earnest eyes.
48:39How could I bear
48:40to let those eyes
48:41be clouded
48:42because of me?
48:43The factory
48:43had long since
48:44been abandoned.
48:45I had no idea
48:46where Benjamin
48:47was at that moment.
48:48I activated
48:49all my senses,
48:51silently praying
48:52in my heart.
48:53That 80% compatibility
48:55please guide me.
48:56Suddenly,
48:57it felt as if
48:58all my cells opened up.
49:00I seemed to have
49:00acquired the same
49:01sense of smell
49:02as a werebeast,
49:03swiftly catching
49:04every trace
49:05of scent in the air.
49:06I found it.
49:07My running speed
49:08increased,
49:09my movements
49:10became agile
49:11and I evaded
49:12the patrols
49:12of the rebel forces,
49:13locating the already
49:15injured Benjamin
49:16in the warehouse
49:16with precision.
49:17He had managed
49:18to contend
49:19with the rebel forces
49:20single-handedly.
49:21Though he was wounded,
49:23he had fortunately
49:24escaped unharmed.
49:26Tabby?
49:27You're alright?
49:29Thank goodness.
49:30Benjamin immediately
49:31pulled me into his arms,
49:33letting out a sigh
49:33of relief.
49:37Since you're safe,
49:38you should have
49:38stayed home.
49:40You shouldn't have come.
49:42If I hadn't come,
49:44would you have kept
49:45risking everything
49:46to search for me?
49:47Benjamin pressed
49:48his lips together,
49:49not denying it.
49:50It seems I made
49:51the right choice
49:51coming here.
49:52The adjutant's messages
49:53could not be
49:54synchronized here,
49:55since the rebel forces
49:56had the means
49:57to interfere
49:57with the signals at home.
49:59They naturally
50:00had the means
50:00to interfere here as well.
50:02People outside
50:03were searching for him.
50:05They checked each room
50:06one by one.
50:07And soon they would
50:08reach this room.
50:10Just then,
50:11an explosion
50:12sounded outside.
50:14One by one,
50:15old-fashioned robots
50:17marched out
50:17from the darkness,
50:19then detonated
50:20themselves in succession.
50:22The sudden chaos
50:23threw the rebel forces
50:25into disarray,
50:26forcing them
50:27to halt their search.
50:29I saw,
50:30in the darkness,
50:31the figure
50:32controlling the robots.
50:34It was Emmanuel.
50:35Benjamin said,
50:38Reinforcements
50:38have arrived.
50:40Emmanuel,
50:41is your reinforcement?
50:43This is the factory
50:44where our mother worked
50:45before she passed away,
50:47specializing in robot production.
50:50Emmanuel grew up here
50:51as a child,
50:52and he knows better
50:53than anyone
50:54how to operate
50:54these robots.
50:56He's responsible
50:57for detonating them,
50:58distracting the rebel forces.
50:59When did you plan all this?
51:01There was no plan.
51:03Benjamin shook his head.
51:05I only told him
51:06that both you and I
51:07were trapped here,
51:08and the signal
51:08had been cut off.
51:09Emmanuel is very smart.
51:11He knows what to do.
51:14As they spoke,
51:16Emmanuel had already
51:17run beneath the window
51:18and opened
51:19a portable cloud soft bed.
51:21Go.
51:22Suddenly,
51:22Benjamin released me.
51:24Go find Emmanuel.
51:26Let him take you home.
51:28Right now,
51:28immediately.
51:29I was stunned.
51:30How did you know?
51:32If I couldn't even guess this,
51:35how could I be
51:36Grand Commander
51:37of the Three Armies?
51:38Benjamin revealed
51:39his unique confidence.
51:41I hurriedly grabbed him.
51:43Then come with me!
51:45I still have duties
51:47to fulfill.
51:48This country,
51:49its people,
51:51still need me.
51:52Benjamin reached out
51:53and gently stroked my cheek,
51:55gazing at me
51:56with reluctance,
51:57as if he wanted
51:57to remember my face forever.
52:00I'm very happy
52:00you came to find me today.
52:02But,
52:03be good.
52:04Your safety
52:05is more important
52:06than anything else.
52:07Benjamin extended
52:08his hand
52:09and pushed me
52:09toward Emmanuel.
52:11The flames
52:12blazed fiercely.
52:14That was the last time
52:15I saw Benjamin.
52:18It had been a month
52:19since I returned
52:20to my own world.
52:21I often sat
52:22on the balcony,
52:23lost in thought,
52:24just as Benjamin
52:25used to do.
52:26Emmanuel walked over
52:28and leaned
52:28against the doorframe.
52:29Are you still
52:30worried about him?
52:31Hmm.
52:33When we left,
52:34reinforcements arrived
52:35just in time.
52:37You should trust
52:38Benjamin.
52:39He didn't get that position
52:41because of family connections.
52:42He fought his way there
52:43with his own strength.
52:45I know,
52:46but
52:46how could I not worry?
52:48He went against
52:49his own instincts
52:49to send me to Emmanuel.
52:51So I would go against
52:52my own instincts as well.
52:53I favored him unconditionally.
52:55Emmanuel lowered his gaze
52:56and smiled helplessly.
52:57Tomorrow we're having dinner
52:58with your parents.
53:00Don't let them think
53:01I've starved
53:02their precious pregnant daughter.
53:03I turned to look at him.
53:05Emmanuel,
53:06are you angry with me?
53:07Why do you ask?
53:09I touched my belly.
53:10I married you
53:11so this child
53:12could be born legitimately.
53:14when I think about it.
53:17It's not fair to you.
53:18It really isn't fair.
53:20Someone as talented as me
53:22and you use me for this?
53:24Emmanuel spoke with a smile.
53:25But who told me
53:26to be 100% for you?
53:28I'm willing.
53:30Besides,
53:31it saved both of you.
53:34Emmanuel's gaze
53:35shifted to my belly,
53:36becoming gentle.
53:37This was Benjamin's child.
53:38During our last time together,
53:40we hadn't taken precautions.
53:41On the day I found out
53:42I was pregnant,
53:43I finally understood why.
53:44On the day I rescued Benjamin,
53:46I suddenly gained the senses
53:47and abilities of a were-beast.
53:49It was because of the child.
53:50It had been doing
53:51everything it could to help me.
53:52To ensure the child
53:53would be accepted by my family,
53:54I thought of many ways.
53:56In the end,
53:57it was Emmanuel
53:57who took the initiative
53:58to become the child's
53:59nominal father.
54:00Emmanuel was young
54:01and accomplished,
54:02and my parents liked him
54:03very much.
54:04He truly took good care of me.
54:05He divided his time
54:06between scientific research
54:08and learning about
54:08prenatal education.
54:10Life passed peacefully.
54:11like this.
54:12The baby was well-behaved,
54:13I had no pregnancy symptoms,
54:15and my body became
54:16even stronger.
54:17I supposed Benjamin's
54:18excellent physical condition
54:19had influenced
54:19both the child and me.
54:22When I was seven months pregnant,
54:25I even went hiking
54:26with my friends.
54:27But because I walked too fast,
54:29I accidentally got separated
54:30from everyone.
54:31The mountain was quiet,
54:33with only the rustling sounds
54:34in my ears.
54:35A huge python slithered out
54:38from the grass.
54:38I was startled,
54:40my mind almost blank.
54:41What should I do?
54:42Should I run now,
54:43or take a chance and fight it?
54:45Cold sweat trickled down my forehead.
54:47But at that very moment,
54:49the python seemed to see something.
54:51Its body shrank back,
54:52eyes filled with terror,
54:53and it turned to flee to its lair.
54:55It brought a familiar scent.
54:57Suddenly,
54:58my blood boiled uncontrollably,
55:00and my heartbeat thundered.
55:02I slowly turned around.
55:04Benjamin stood behind me,
55:06wearing his uniform,
55:07arms open wide.
55:09I'm sorry,
55:10I was late.
55:12I often felt sorry for my baby.
55:15Until he was one year old,
55:16he had hardly had a peaceful day.
55:18There were always quarrels at home.
55:21Emmanuel said,
55:22Listen to me!
55:23I'm the child's nominal father!
55:25Benjamin replied,
55:27Look at the child's ears,
55:28tail,
55:29and pupils,
55:30and say that again?
55:31If I hadn't left that equipment for you,
55:33you wouldn't have had a chance
55:34to see Tabby again.
55:37Who said you could call her Tabby?
55:40Homewrecker!
55:42I have a marriage certificate with her.
55:44You're the homewrecker.
55:46Who doesn't?
55:47My certificate is dated earlier than yours.
55:50Why haven't you left yet?
55:51Is it peaceful over there?
55:53Is the army fine?
55:55Yes, it was suppressed with iron and blood.
55:58No need for your concern.
56:00But Matthias misses you very much.
56:03When will you go back to see him?
56:06Next week,
56:07after I'm done with my experiments,
56:09I'll bring a bottle of Pappy Van Winten
56:11for him to try.
56:14The baby suddenly whimpered twice.
56:16Benjamin immediately reached out.
56:18Daddy's here!
56:19Emmanuel also turned his head.
56:21Daddy's here!
56:22The two glared at each other,
56:23seemingly ready to fight over the title again.
56:25I quietly held the child
56:27and stayed away from the battlefield.
56:30Ah, the sunlight was so lovely.
